v4c.ai Promotes Michael Gibson to CEO Following Significant Growth

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Oct. 20, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- v4c.ai, a strategic boutique pure-play Databricks services partner, has announced the promotion of Michael Gibson to Chief Executive Officer. This move comes on the heels of significant growth for the company, including a 765% year-over-year revenue increase and a 350% increase in its worldwide client base. The promotion is also linked to v4c's recognition as the 2026 Databricks C&SI Emerging Partner of the Year.

Gibson, who previously served as Chief Revenue Officer, has been instrumental in scaling v4c's global sales organization. His leadership has been central to the company's expansion, particularly in aligning v4c's go-to-market strategy with Databricks. Gibson has focused on building relationships across Databricks' field organization and connecting enterprise customers with the necessary expertise to advance their Databricks initiatives.

Before joining v4c.ai, Gibson held the position of Senior Area Vice President at MuleSoft, where he led nationwide sales teams serving enterprise customers in banking, retail, consumer goods, and manufacturing. His leadership and performance earned him multiple MuleSoft Owner's Awards for management and culture building, two AVP of the Year honors, and Chairman's Club recognition. His tenure at MuleSoft also included the company's initial public offering and subsequent acquisition by Salesforce, providing him with firsthand experience navigating rapid growth and organizational change.

Gibson's new role as CEO will see him expand his responsibilities to leadership across the business. He will work closely with the Board to define v4c's strategy and vision, uniting leaders across all functions to translate that direction into company-wide execution. His focus will span business performance, leadership development, and a culture of collaboration and accountability, while advancing customer success and delivery excellence.

The promotion of Gibson to CEO follows two major milestones in v4c's relationship with Databricks: an investment from Databricks Ventures and recognition as the 2026 Databricks C&SI Emerging Partner of the Year. These milestones reinforce the strategic alignment between the organizations and provide a foundation for further investment in Databricks expertise, joint field engagement, and global delivery capabilities.

Under Gibson's leadership, v4c aims to become the world's best Databricks SI partner, earning the confidence of Databricks teams in every market it serves and delivering for the customers who trust it with their data and AI priorities.
